Borders Latest Ad


Charles at LGF say, "Irony, thy name is Borders."

I say, I will never buy anything at Borders again.

Here is the perfect Infidel Protest:



Take all the korans in your local Borders,

and

move them to the Gay & Lesbian section.

That's what I'm doing on my lunch break tomorrow. Great suggestion.

Christine said...

That's a good one. :-)

That is Pure Genius!

Glad you guys like the idea.

What will Borders do, if this idea is taken up across the West?

They'll be running back and forth across their store with that dumb gray book cart all day long. This will become a bigger priority for them than playing anti-social music than figuring out which body-part to have pierced next.

Get some dog hair, and anoint these korans before you move them.

I like it. Either that, or move them to the bottom shelf and replace the top with books on Hinduism. Apparently as far as Muslims and Borders is concerned, that is REALLY bad. But yeah, the GLBT section is good. Sharpies (don't know about you guys, but I always carry one) to add the word "is" into the Koran and Islam for Dummies books would really be funny too. I always like moving the book "Cnut" around. It's always there, and EVERYONE reads it wrong, especially on the spine. Cnut may be more accurate, but the conventional "Canute" may have served the author better.

As for me, I'm about to call corporate. I'll let you know.

There's some REALLY GOOD anti-ROP MP3s at BrainSurgeryWithSpoons.blogspot.com

Try "Aloha Snackbar!" and "In the Koran!" and "ROPMA" for starters! Tell yr friends, share these and share this link!

Joyce,
Good idea. Can you imagine, for instance, a book of homoerotic art photography next to the koran?

Heh.

Alternate Qurans with homoerotic stuff, so it's, shall we say, interpenetrating.

As for putting Qurans on the bottom shelf, that's good, but I wouldn't put Hindu books on the top shelf, because that will make it look like this is a Hindu-Islam argument, and it's not. It's Islam against the world.

The other thing to do is to find Robert Spencer's Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam and the Crusades (in Barnes & Nobles I find it hidden in "Current Events" section) and put it with the Qurans in the religion section. Also, ask Borders to order Bruce Bawer's While Europe Slept, How Radical Islam Is Destroying the West from Within. Bawer is gay by the way, and this is one of the best books you will ever read about what Islam is doing to Europe.

Better yet. Take a Quran and, without damaging it (store property) move it to some shelf where it will be hard to find. Many Muslims are trying to make it costly, through lawsuits, threats, intimidation and so on, for criticism of Islam to be heard. So perhaps it's time for non-Muslims, within the bounds of the law, to make things costly for Islam when we can.

Consider not buying Muslim made products, cut back on driving if possible so we use less Middle East oil, support raising taxes on gas (and lowering taxes on other stuff, if you feel conservative) so we learn to use less gas or develop other forms of fuel.
